Thanks, Peaty. I shall await your PM. Cheers.

Bought this on a bit of a whim about 3 or 4 years ago and haven't really used it since after some initial pootling. I had this idea that it might be needed for working up songs at a guitarist friend's house, but that never happened and I currently find myself band-less and the owner of a TC RH750 and Boss Katana 500 besides this, so it's been sitting here gathering dust. It's been used a couple of times in my home by a bass student of mine, but has never been taken out of the house (in fact, it's never got out of the back bedroom!) and is in pristine condition, boxed with original lead and instructions. Kicks out a lot of volume for such a small unit and I'd imagine could be used easily for small gigs. Price includes P&P within the UK. Check my feedback and give me a shout if you have any questions. Thanks for looking. BC

I'm selling an early version ACG/John East EQ02 (please note - this is the SINGLE pickup version). I had this installed on a lovely Zoot bass I owned a good few years back, which was equipped with a single Seymour Duncan MM pickup. I can't remember what the original preamp was but I had an itch to try a filter preamp, so acquired this one from ACG directly as he still sold them separately at the time. It was installed by our very own (much missed) Steve Soar. It worked a treat and obviously gave a huge range of tones. I then decided the neck was a bit too wide for my tastes and sold it on to my (one!) bass pupil. He never got to grips with the preamp and decided to have the bass converted back to passive, and had Mike Walsh at Zoot do the work. Through a variety of convoluted reasons, I have ended up with it again, but have no use for it - so, here it is! Preamp comprises four knobs - Volume, Passive tone and 2 x stacked filters (low and high). It comes with all the original installation instructions and will be securely packed. I also had a low battery indicator included in the installation, which is the little LED you can see side-on in the top right of the picture (just under the square circuit board). Price is £100 and includes UK P&P. It's worth repeating, I think, this is the single pickup version and I have no idea whether it can be adapted for a two pickup bass. You'll find plenty of feedback for me in the appropriate thread, but please feel free to ask any questions. (EDIT - for anyone concerned, the batteries have long since been disconnected and will not be included as they are most likely drained.) Thanks all, BC

This is a wonderful bass and a steal at the price Peter has reduced it to. The one slight correction to make to Peter's advert is that the 6-way varitone switch is actually an original Aria SB-1000 one that Mike came across in his parts box during the build. The neck is a work of art in its own right! I can also attest - as many have before me - that Peter is an absolutely top bloke to do business with. If I had the funds spare I'd have this back in a flash, but sadly retirement has reduced cashflow significantly these days.

I bought one of these a few years back, to keep me going whilst I was waiting for my ACG to be built. I swapped out the stock tone controls for one of Kiogon's looms, which transformed it completely. It always played really well, but after that it sounded bloody wonderful too. Sold it when the ACG arrived, but I really should have kept hold of it. These were really nice basses.

On hold, sold subject to payment.

And replied - thanks, Ian.
